Half-Scale 427 Engine in Henry Ford Museum

working. Would you have to build a car on a scale of one to two to put it there? If I were younger, I would have built a '71 Mercury and put it there. Now, I'm going to make a set of exhaust manifolds. It will have the same manifolds as the Mercury 71 , and we will put it on the stand, start it, and run it with the manifolds like on the Pearson Mercury. Is this your favorite race car? One of them. Uh...that '58 convertible that Glenn drove and that I really liked. Were these manifolds on that engine with equal length primary pipes, or is there some science to this configuration? Yes, you could look at it in different ways. You could make them all the same length, all curves and stuff, and then we figured out a way to optimize the exhaust pipes in front, and then we folded them up to the exhaust pipe to
